My latest little project to deal with my sagging headliner. I pulled out the fiberglass shell, pulled the material off, and cleaned the foam off with a wire brush. Primed it and painted with some color-matched paint. (Went to Lowe's and had them match the headliner fabric.)

Since I live in San Antonio, heat from the roof is a big issue. Decided to try some radiant barrier. I did put barrier in the center holes after install.

That's a great idea. I might just try that. I live in SoCal and I have no a.c. Haha

Looked into why my sub stopped working. Started with pulling the sub out of the box to see if it was blown, everything seemed fine and it didn't smell like it was fried. Chcked all the wiring to the amp and everything there looked fine and i still have power to the amp. Pulled the head unit to see if anything back there may have wiggled its self loose or something but that all looked solid. The only thing I can think of is the rca cables could have gone bad. Does that sound like a legit issue to anyone, or does anyone have another idea of what to check out?

Is the amp good?
Is the power source good? You can still have power but if it isnt a good connection to your battery it could stop.

Then began installing a pair of OEM tow hooks in front. Discovered the screw set that ties the tow hook to the bumper won't fit in the place it should because the ac condenser is in the way.

I'm thinking I will have to cut the screws. My concern is that the screw set have corroded near the flat piece. I would try to rethread the screws, but they are so close to each other that my threader won't fit between them. Anyone have a suggestion? And before you say it - I'd rather skip the KOR radiator support for the hooks. I want to make the OEM tow hooks work.

Had to trim my front bumper cover to keep the 31s from flapping the lower front part n zipp tyed the inner liner to keep from moving ...Now i cant keep my 20yr Daughter from Driving it She loves it..She said give to her on her 21st in August ...NO...get your own...lol...

You need you lift the a/c condenser to get the studs in

Get a spare nut and some good rust inhibitor. Take your time and work the nut on the stud.

Force 'em in. They'll fit. You'll probably have to bend a few ridges on the radiator on the bottom, but you should be fine. Just don't bend them enough to cause the radiator to leak. That's what I did for mine a couple years ago and I haven't had any problems with them.

OT, between landscaping around my house, building a border around my daughter's swing set, and numerous runs to the store, I was able to get a bracket and modify it to work as a flag mount for the front of my ZJ. I'll try to get a couple pictures today. It was 10pm before I was finished laying down the mulch for the playground; I was beat and felt like sleeping in the backyard.

What's nice about it is when I'm ready to put the bumper cover back on after a wheeling trip, it stays there. It's not too big, it's rounded so it's parking lot friendly, and it's pretty sturdy. It's mounted with 1" 1/4-20 hardware with Nylock nuts on the back side.

Right there next to your hand in the pic is the spot where the radiator sits in it lower mount, you can stick a screwdriver under it and lift up on the rad. There should be a good inch to inch and a half to work with after you do that. Jus make sure it comes all the way back down into its mounting holes when done.

This.

I had to bend the fins too when I put tow hooks on my old ZJ. Just bend them and tap with a hammer and they fall right into place.
